The rolling stock covers 116 thousand freight and 5.3 thousand passenger cars, as well as about 4 thousand locos. By 2026 it is planned to rehabilitate electrify the existing railway sections, establish high-speed rail connections, purchase new rolling stock and other equipment. For this purposes the government of Ukraine plans investing $2.8 B by 2016 and additional $11 B– by 2026.

In Ukraine Egis has been so far involved in a number of institutional regional projects (e.g., TRACECA Motorways of the Sea, TRACECA Logistical Centers and Motorways of the Sea) dealing with the development of multi-modal (rail-road-maritime transport) systems. Now Egis intends to develop its presence in the railway sector in Ukraine, being a key partner for the country with the capacity of providing technical assistance services for the reform of the National Railway Company and project management services for modernization of the railway network.
